Objective To evaluate the changes of reticulated platelets (RP)in diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Methods RPs were measured by flow cytometry and the percentage and absolute counts of RPs were calcula- ted in ITP group,non-ITP group and control group.Results Compared with control group,ITP group had a significantly high percentage and low absolute counts of RPs (P

Ojective To evaluate the clinical application of ultrasound-guided Mammotome system to the treatment of patients with breast fibroadenoma. Methods The minimally invasive operations for 53 breast fibroadenoma in 43 patients were performed by ultrasound-guided Mammotome system, and the therapeutic efficacy of Mammotome system was evaluated. Results 53 lesions (0.6cm～2.2cm) in 43 patients with breast fibroadenoma were completely excised by the Mammotome system. The average incisions were 17 times and the mean operative time was 31 min. All the operations were successfully accomplished without serious complication. The length of incision was only 3 mm. And no recurrence was found by physical examination and B-ultrasonography in 15 patients(21 lesions) during follow up period for 6～21(13.5?4.0) months. Conclusions Mammotome system is simple and effective technique with minimal invasion for the excision of small breast fibroadenoma.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of operation treatment of Lisfranc fracture dislocation,and evaluate its clinical effect.Methods Thirty-nine patients with Lisfranc joint injuries (46 sides) were managed with open reduetlon as well as internal fixation with serews and Kirsehnerwlres.Results All the patients were followed up from12.0 to 42.0 months,the average was (21.1 ± 1.8) months.Evaluated the clinical effect according to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot score standard,there were 29 cases of excellent,8 cases of good,and 3 cases of aceeptable.Conclusion By Kirschner wire combining with screw fixation,open reduction and internal fixation may achieve satisfactory clinical results for the treatment of Lisfranc joint injurie.The operation is simple and fast,small trauma,less complications and can obtain good effects.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of the enhancement treatment on osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture and its complications in the elderly.Methods From September 2007 to February 2012,183 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture underwent percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) or percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in our department.157 of them were completely followed up (PKP group,n=96; PVP group,n=61) and totally 182 vertebral bodies were fractured (PKP group,n=107; PVP group,n=75).Visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Oswestry disability index (ODI) score were evaluated before and 3 days and 3 months after the surgery.Plain film radiography was taken to evaluate the vertebral body height.ODI score was evaluated at the end of the follow-up.The leakage of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) during the operation and the refracture were recorded.Results The mean height of the vertebral body before operation had no difference between PVP and PKP group [(1.31±0.18) cm vs.(1.32±0.16) cm,t =0.72,P＞0.05].After the operation,the mean height of the vertebral body was lower in PVP group than in PKP group [(1.50±0.20) cm vs.(1.66±0.17) cm,t=2.28,P＜0.05].The mean amount of the PMMA injected into the vertebral bodies was less in PVP group than in PKP group [(2.93±0.34) ml vs.(3.34±0.49) ml,t=2.39,P＜0.05].In the PVP group,the VAS scores were (7.5±0.79),(3.0±0.6) and (1.9±0.9) before,3 days and 3 months after operation respectively,and there was a significant difference in VAS score before versus 3 days after operation (t =15.59,P＜0.05).In thePKPgroup,the VAS scores were (7.3±1.0),(3.0±0.8) and (2.2± 0.9)before,3 days and 3 months after operation respectively,and there was a significant difference in VAS score before versus 3 days after operation (t=10.69,P＜0.05).In the PVP group,the ODI scores were (78.9±7.3),(30.0±3.7) and (25.5±3.5) before and 3 months after operation and at the end of follow-up respectively,and there were significant differences in ODI score before operation versus 3 months after operation (t=20.83,P＜0.01) and 3 months after operation versus at the end of follow-up (t=4.03,P＜0.05).In the PKP group,the ODI scores were (78.8±6.8),(29.8±4.43) and (23.8 ± 2.7) before operation,3 months after operation and at the end of follow-up respectively,and there were significant differences in ODI score before operation versus 3 months after operation (t=21.52,P＜0.01) and 3 months after operation versus at the end of follow-up (t=3.14,P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in VAS and ODI scores between the two groups before versus after operation (t=0.34,P＞0.05).The incidence of refracture was 8.2％ in PVP group and 9.4％ in PKP group,which had no statistical difference between the two groups(x2 =0.06,P＞0.05).All the leakage was asymptomatic.The incidence of PMMA leakage was 20.0％ (15 cases) in PVP group and 9.3％ (10 cases) in PKP group,which had a statistical difference between the two groups (x2 =4.22,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Enhancement treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture can quickly relieve the pain and improve the quality of life.PKP and PVP show no differences in the effect of analgesia and the improvement of life quality,but PKP has the advantages in recovering vertebral height and reducing PMMA leakage.

Objective To investigate the effect of probiotic supplement on the microbiology,bacterial translocation,and gut barrier function of the rats with abdominal infection. Methods After making the models of cecal ligation and perforation,the SD rats were divided into two groups.The rats in the control group were administrated with parenteral nutrition.The rats in the experimental group were administrated with parenteral nutrition and probiotics via the needle jejunostomy and neck vein for 5 d.The feces in the cecum were cultured by anaerobic bacterial growth.The vena cava blood and the homogenated tissues of the lives,hungs and mesenteric lymph nodes were cultured to determine bacterial translocation. Results The quantity of normal intestinal bacteria in the experimental group and the control group had significant difference except Enterobacteriaceae.The quantity of L.acidophilus and Bifidobacteria in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group.The quantity of C.perfrigens,the potential pathogenic germ in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P
